500 S&W scope rings
« on: December 21, 2011, 05:10:14 PM »
I just signed up for this forum and wow lots of good reading. The question is I am going to put a ultra dot scope on it, the scope comes with rings are these going to be strong enough? The pistol is  A S@W 6' barrel the bases came with the gun. The reason I ask is because I Have a SRH by David White and he has three ring on the scope. thanks Bill

When I put the 2x Weaver scope on my 6 1/2" .500 PC Hunter, I used two steel Warned QD rings and secured the scope with 620 Loctite. I feel the important things are wide steel rings and Loctite. Three rings wouldn't hurt, but probably aren't necessary, but I don't making a rabbit to shoot giant killer loads.
